Arna joined our group in January 2024. She has been working on the preperation and assembly of an electromagnetic calorimeter for Jefferson Lab for the SBS experiment running in 2025, in which she also participated. She also got involved in a future Hall A experiment aiming at measuring Double Deeply Virtual Compton Scattering for which she has been running GEANT4 simulations to design the muon detector. This experiment was approved (C1, rating A) by the Program Advisory Committee in 2025. Arna has been admitted in graduate school by the Hampton University starting in fall of 2025.
